An interesting question for which I have no answer is as anyone been on the losing side of all 32 teams?  Would be almost impossible for a QB or coach to pull that off as if you lost that often you wouldn't have the logevity necessary.  But a good player in other positions particularly punter or kicker on a couple of really sucky teams might be able to pull it off.

I was checking on something else and just realized with a win over the Texans, Steelers and Dolphins (and the Jets play all three this year) as certain defensive end could be joining their ranks. 

Take out the Steelers and you'd be correct.  The Dolphins beat the Steelers in 98 with JT starting at DE.

Hoodie, I think Landshark might still be right because from looking at your referenced table/gamelog, that thing is only keeping track of *major* stats for a defensive player such as sacks, INT's, and maybe FF's/FR's...it doesn't even have tackles recorded on there.  I know that Jason played a full season of 16 games several of those seasons and yet not all 16 games are listed for some of those seasons.  So, Jason very well could have played and even started in that 1998 game against Pittsburgh and it not be in that Pro Football Reference gamelog if he didn't register a sack, INT, or maybe FF/FR (can't remember if those were on there or not).

Jason Taylor played in 16 games in 1998:

So cross the Steelers off of that list.

P.S. Lest you be inclined to think that those 16 games might have included the playoffs, check Tom Brady's NFL.com profile.  16 games per year, even in playoff years.

^^^ then Jtex could get his wish if the Dolphins win the first match up and then the Jets beat the Texans and win the second match up.

This isn't the first time we have found an issues with that reference site (I can't remember the other, but it wasn;t too long ago). You may want to find a new source.

I'm a business professor at a North Florida community college.  Situations like this are exactly why I don't allow my students to use answer or reference sites as sources when they're working on papers.  Most reference/answer sites can be easily edited and are not considered scholarly sources.

I am not writing my doctoral thesis or filing a brief with the supreme court...we are discussing triva on a football forum. 

I would not use such a source if the info really mattered.

Regardless of whether it really matters or not, your source turned out to be misleading.  You need to use more reliable sources, son.
